Despite early battles with penalties, the Lakewood Lancers still defeated the visiting Mayfair Monsoons, 24-14, adding a \u2018W\u2019 to their now 3-0 record and gaining the all-important Milk Bucket in the fierce rivalry.<\/p>\n

The Lancers\u2019 running game was their biggest offensive weapon as they mostly rotated senior running backs Allie Long and Rashaad Wadood to disrupt the Monsoons\u2019 front-seven defense.  Long had nine carries for 105 yards while Wadood had 10 carries for 64 yards including two touchdowns.  After the game, head coach Thadd MacNeal praised both tailbacks.<\/p>\n

\u201cAllie was our workhorse tonight,\u201d said MacNeal.  \u201cHe had some great runs.  Him and [Rashaad Wadood] make a great one-two punch.\u201d<\/p>\n

Long returned the praise with his own comment about the success of the play-calling by his coach.<\/p>\n

\"\"\u201cIt\u2019s the offense we run that wins us games,\u201d Long, pictured right, said.  \u201cCoach Mac puts us in positions to play good and gives the plays to be good.\u201d<\/p>\n

The offense took a slow start in consequence with the five penalties they suffered in the first quarter alone.  The Lancers scored their first points, the first points in the game, with a 52-yard touchdown pass from senior quarterback Tyler Schultz to senior fullback Dupree Jordan.  Schultz amassed 136 passing yards with the lone touchdown to Jordan.<\/p>\n

Monsoons\u2019 running back Dominique Small provided most, if not all, of the offense for Mayfair.  The senior running back rushed for 177 yards on 30 carries, for a 5.9 yards per carry average.  Small did most of his damage in the first half as the Lancers adjusted to the Monsoon running game in the second half.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve seen him for three weeks, he\u2019s fantastic,\u201d MacNeal said of Smalls.  \u201cOur defense got a little tired.  Give credit to Mayfair, we\u2019ll play better next week.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lancers senior Todd Barr helped the defense with a game-high two sacks.  The defensive lineman along with the rest of the line made it difficult for Monsoons senior quarterback Evan Hunko to be comfortable in the pocket.  Hunko had less than 10 passing attempts thanks to the pressure by the defense.<\/p>\n

Barr was disappointed in their defense against the rush, but praised the offense that won the game.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur defense needs to step up, our offense had a hell of a game,\u201d Barr said. \u201cOur coaches stress perfection and we needed that perfection against the run. We\u2019ll get there, we just need to work more.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe didn\u2019t do our assignments very well in the first half.  The line and our linebackers gave them a lot of gaps.  We\u2019ll just have to get back to the playbook and be better.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Lancers play next at the Leuzinger High Olympians next Friday at 7:00pm.<\/p>\n
